A complete set of Mercury dimes includes Full Bands examples of not just the 77 regular-issue pieces, including all of the date-and-mintmark varieties and the three most commonly collected varieties, including the 1942/1, 1942/1-D, and 1945 Micro S. While this is a comprehensive set of business-strike Mercury dimes, it does not include the proofs that were struck from 1936 through 1942 or any minor varieties.
Obverse Description
Winged Liberty, or Mercury (the Roman god of commerce), is depicted facing left with LIBERTY spelled around the periphery. IN GOD WE TRUST appears left of the neck and the date is positioned just below the bust around 5 o'clock. The designer's initials "AW" appear to the right of the neck.
Reverse Description
A large torch is centered vertically adorned with an axe head and olive branches. UNITED STATES OF AMERICAN * ONE DIME * is spelled out around the periphery. Mint mark, if any, appears near the bottom rim left of the torch.
